Trade a new Chevrolet Equinox EV dealer to dealer
Can I trade a new Chevrolet Equinox EV with another dealer? Yes. List the unit on Locates.io, or search for the exact build you need, and the other dealer stays anonymous until both of you sign. Locates.io sets the terms and runs the paperwork, money and freight. Selling is free; the buyer pays $199 per unit, one time.
Why do dealers trade the Equinox EV?
The Equinox EV is an electric compact SUV. A compact electric SUV is a volume unit for many stores, so a few unsold units add up on the floor plan. Moving them to a store with demand is cheaper than waiting. A trade turns a carrying cost on one lot into a sale on another.
If the unit has been sitting, read pricing an aged EV before you set a number.
What decides whether a Equinox EV matches?
Trim, drive configuration, color and package decide the match. Locates.io searches on those attributes, so a buyer finds the exact build and a seller reaches only dealers who want it.
| Attribute | What to specify |
|---|---|
| Trim | The trim level |
| Drive configuration | Front or all-wheel drive option |
| Color and package | Exterior color and option packages |
How does a Equinox EV trade work?
Five steps: list, match, agree, sign, then deliver and settle. See how it works for the full walk-through. Until both dealers have signed, each sees only vehicle attributes, a freight region, a distance band and an anonymous profile. Names, addresses and VINs are released in the signed agreement.
What does it cost to trade a Equinox EV?
Selling is free. The buyer pays the platform fee: $199 per unit, one time, never monthly, and only when a trade happens. Freight starts as an estimate range, not a quote. At terms, the buyer's freight charge is the carrier's quote split per unit plus Locates.io's flat $75 a unit, and it is locked from then on. Buyer pickup has no freight charge.
